LEEDS, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 01/30/13 -- Children's charity Fairplay has received a donation of GBP 450 from Chesterfield-based law firm Spencers Solicitors. Fairplay provides support to disabled children, young people and their families across the whole of North Derbyshire. Their invaluable services include out of school play schemes, independent living groups for young adults, youth clubs, parent support and family activity days.

Sue Green, Centre Manager at Fairplay was delighted with the donation and said: "I am extremely grateful to Spencers Solicitors for their support. It is wonderful to receive the donation from a local business that understands and appreciates the work that we carry out for disabled people in the local community."

Spencers, who support a number of local Derbyshire based charities, raised the money by sending out Christmas e-cards to its business contacts rather than posting traditional Christmas cards.

Lee Foster, Section Head and Solicitor at Spencers Solicitors said: "We are always looking for ways to support the local community the money saved by sending e-Christmas cards means we can help Fairplay continue the invaluable work they do. Fairplay are a superb organisation with ambitious plans for 2013, and we are looking forward to getting involved and assisting wherever possible."
